Apple’s plastic Watch FE, which was reported to be a watch for kids, might be in serious jeopardy because of its looks.
, it was reported that Apple was working on the next-gen Watch SE, which would be the company’s successor to the Apple Watch SE launched in 2022. Notably, Apple was rumored to have ditched aluminum in favor of plastic. This material change was purportedly aimed at keeping the cost down.
Later, it came to light that Apple was not only considering a change in Watch SE’s material but was also exploring a different target market for it. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman suggested that the plastic Apple Watch SE will be launched as a kids’ watch, and marketed as an alternative to smartphones for young ones.
